1. I think the best ISO section is 800 for portraits.
2. My best photos were ISO 800 & 1600.
3. Yes because the pictures look similar to each other.
4. I learned how to change setting and for them to look similar and to adjust it to work with lighting.

Portraits and Self Portraits

Tip #3: Use Both Auto and Manual Focus

   A good practice to get into when you're taking self-portraits is to use a mix of auto and manual focus. First, focus on your stand-in object using auto focus. Then, with the object still in focus, switch your lens to manual focus.

This will give you the freedom to tweak settings, re-meter for changing light and anything else you need to all without screwing up your established point of focus. Just make sure you stand perfectly on your mark each time you take a photo.

Get Closer

   The most common mistake made by photographers is that they are not physically close enough to their subjects. In some cases this means that the center of interest—the subject—is just a speck, too small to have any impact. Even when it is big enough to be decipherable, it usually carries little meaning. Viewers can sense when a subject is small because it was supposed to be and when it's small because the photographer was too shy to get close.

Don't be shy. If you approach people in the right way, they'll usually be happy to have their picture made. It's up to you to break the ice and get them to cooperate. Joke around with them. Tell them why you want to make the picture. Practice with people you know so that you are comfortable; people can sense when you aren't.

   You can also capture a self-portrait by supporting your camera, then frame your picture and focus with a stand-in. 

Environmental Portraits 

I like this photo because theres not much going and its not centered but yet its focuses on one person.

I like this photo because its a self portrait but the child is not paying attention do it makes it simple but pretty.

Casual Portraits

I like this photo because its casual wear and theres really nothing going on they're just posing.

I like this photo because its just somebody (lady) posing for to take a picture and its simple.

Formal Portraits 

I like this photo because Its a formal wear and she is meant to be in a position someone told her to be in. its a serious picture that is being taken.

I like this photo because theres nothing in the background its focused on one thing and its meant for it to be taken as a professional photo.

Self Portraits  

I like this self portrait because its simple and she has taken it herself 

I like this photo because he's taking it with the reflection of the mirror. 

Tiana  and I will be taking each others portraits.

1. ISO is an advantage at a football game because it can take pictures with light that is there and most football games are in the dark and ISO can take a picture with low light.

2. He said to use the lowest ISO to capture and retain the most detail.

3.He said to use the highest ISO when theres not enough light for the camera to capture the photos quickly.
